New York Mail and Express.
! Drexel, the wealthy banker of Philadel-
phla, who are travelling abroad, have
reached Rome. A great deal of attention
has been shown them in the Eternal City.
They have been entertained by some Of
the Roman nobility and many of the
American and English residents. They
were also presented in private audience
to the pope, who had already heard of
their munifceut charities, and also of
their dead father. They are all three of
a deeply religious turn of mind, and
write growlingly of their visit to the holy
father. Even while abroad they keep
up their home charities and write CON
stantly concerning the great home for
boys and girls, just outside this city, that
is being erected at their expense. Their
late father gave outright million and a
half of dollars TO Roman Catholic rchari-
ties. The remainder of his fortune
amounting TO over S13, 1000, he left,
share and share alike, to his daughters
for life. If the young ladies marry the
fortune will go to their children; if any
remain single, it will go to the chit
dren of the one or two who marry; if all
remain unmarried, the entire fortune
will, after the death of all three, be d.
vlded in equal proportions among the
charities mentioned in their late fathers
will, and to whom the million and a half
has already been awarded; the same re-
suit will follow If they marry ard have
no issue

THE IMMENSE FORTUNE

in the hands of the three young girls
literally overwhelms them. They don't
know what to do with it. Four millions
and more in the hands of each of the
three girls! 1t is no wonder that they
feel burdened. They can't spend the
money. They can't give it away fast
enough. The home for boys that they
have founded will associate their name
for generations with one of the greatest
institutions of the kind in the world
Such retreat to be founded by young
girls has been unheard of hitherto in the
worlds history. 1t is intended to rival
in material, extent and educational scope
Girard college. The first cost is to be
S250,000, aud the young girls subsequent
ly are to pay the entire expense of carry
ing on the institution. The buildings
are now well under way, and will be ready
for occupancy before many months.
The young ladies, during their tour
abroad, have been visiting all the princi-
pal continental institutions for the educa-
tlon of the young, and write that they
have acquired much knowledge that will
be of use in carrying out their great
project. Although so wealthy, there has
been no snow whatever associated with

La CRossE, Wis, April 26.-W. L.
Crosby, who was elected city attorney at

declined to qualify. Mr.. Crosby was nom
mated in his absence from tho city and
was elected by large majority, despite
the fact that notices were posted at the
polling places, in whick he said he could
not accept the Office. In declining the
office he says: "Mr. Gordon, my partner,
is district attorney, and his time is large
ly occupied in the performance of the
duties of that office. My acceptance of
the office of city attorney would, therefore
necessitate the loss of great deal of our

MIR. ouderdonk,s Proposal.

GALVESTON, March S.-When the
proposition of Mr.. Onderdonk was
made to the city Of Galveston through
Col. w. L. Moody, to cut channel OF
twenty feet depth through the bar at
the entrance of Galveston harbor
for 100000, and to maintain
the work for one year at
an additional cost of 100000, one of
the most feasible objections urged
against the proposition was the tenn
porary character given Thy the i'm
piled restriction of its maintenance to
a period of one year. The Galveston
News at the time assumed the position
that the maintenance OF the work for
a year carried with it the possibility of
still further maintenance and rendered
an assertion that Mr.. Onderdonk would
underto ok for q consideration to
guarantee the permanency of his pro-
posed work. To meet the objections
raised Col. Moody wrote'to Mr.. On
derdonk to-day in reference to the
matter and received the following tel
egraphic answer:
